The Mozart Musicale.

AS was predicted in THE TINES of Sat
urday, Mozart Academy was packed last
night. Every seat on the loor and in the
galleries being taken and standing-room
was at a premium.
The attraction was Andres Alpine
Choir and Tyrolese Company. The en-
tertainment is the same that is so common
and popul. r at the garden concerts in
the Northern cities. But it was a novelty
to most of that audience and highly en-
joyed. The selections embraced melodies
Of many lands, and both vocal and instru-
mental were well executed by performers,
male and female. While the concert
could lay no claim TO high-art %music, it
was lively and entertaining and loudly
applauded. Encores were specially re-
quested not to be insisted on and tie rue
was partially observed. The entertain
ment lasted some time longer than the
usual m~usicales, but upon the whole was
satisfactory.
